Do Your Code Like A User Is Stupid

Ah, the classic solopreneur delusion! Why validate your idea with a simple landing page when you can disappear into the engineering rabbit hole instead? Nothing says "I'm a serious developer" quite like meticulously crafting a CI/CD pipeline for an app that literally nobody asked for and probably never will. The true entrepreneurial spirit: ignoring market validation in favor of building infrastructure that would impress your developer friends... if only they cared. But hey, at least you'll have the most robust deployment system for your zero users!

The AUDACITY of npm! You literally just typed npm init and suddenly your pristine, innocent, COMPLETELY EMPTY project is RIDDLED with 17 vulnerabilities?! THE DRAMA! It's like buying a brand new car and immediately getting a notification that your non-existent engine is about to explode. Thanks npm, for giving me trust issues before I've even written a single line of code! The smug cat face is literally all of us trying to smile through the pain while our dependency hell begins before the project even exists. 💀

Oh, the ABSOLUTE TRAGEDY of programming languages! 💀 C makes you hate Object-Oriented Programming because WHO NEEDS ORGANIZATION when you can have pure CHAOS?! Python's performance is slower than my grandmother's dial-up internet! Java's memory management is like having a roommate who keeps buying furniture but NEVER THROWS ANYTHING AWAY! C++ will literally SHOOT YOUR LEG OFF with pointer errors and memory leaks! And CSS? Can't even finish the word "CONSISTENCY" because IT DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS! The audacity of these languages to make us suffer while we pretend to be professional developers! 😭

The eternal disconnect between "sharing" and what you're actually sharing. Someone just discovered Claude can write code and thinks they've built the next Facebook, but they're literally sharing localhost:3000—a URL that only exists on their own machine. It's like inviting everyone to your house party but giving them directions to your bedroom mirror. For the uninitiated: localhost is your computer's way of talking to itself. Port 3000 is typically where dev servers run. So this person is excitedly telling the internet to check out a website that... only they can see. The confidence-to-competence ratio here is *chef's kiss*. Zero coding knowledge, fully functioning delusion.

The form literally says "enter in YYYY/MM/DD format only" while providing a field that's pre-formatted as m/d/yyyy and a date picker button right next to it. It's like asking someone to write an essay in Spanish but giving them a French keyboard. This is the digital equivalent of those passive-aggressive sticky notes your coworker leaves on the break room fridge. Frontend developers probably saw this and felt their souls leave their bodies.
